According to @rovercrc, Bitmine has acquired $1.5 billion in Ethereum (ETH), while Tom Lee warns of a Treasury market bubble but remains bullish on crypto; traders should monitor ETH spot exchange netflows, large on-chain transfers to custodians, ETH/BTC relative strength, and options implied volatility for confirmation of institutional accumulation and rates-driven volatility impacts.

According to the source, a social-media post on Oct 19, 2025 claims BitMine purchased $1.5 billion worth of ETH and states that Tom Lee described a treasury bubble while remaining bullish. According to the same source, the pairing of a large ETH whale-accumulation claim with a bullish macro remark is presented as a supportive near-term sentiment backdrop for Ethereum. According to the source, traders should treat the BitMine purchase claim as unconfirmed until validated by BitMine’s official disclosures or on-chain tracking, using tight risk controls around any headline-driven ETH volatility. According to the source, focus near term should be on confirmation signals before positioning—such as official statements or verifiable transaction evidence—rather than chasing momentum on an unverified claim.
